Training for Cheaha and Dugger Mountain Rangers, Nov. 19

A crucial piece of your education as a Volunteer Wilderness Ranger is the Forest Service training. All rangers who plan to work in the Cheaha and/or Dugger Mountain Wilderness areas must attend in person.

Forest Service training will include

Use of the two-way radios

Safety Procedures

VWR Job Hazard Analysis

Wilderness Regulations

Emergency Procedures, including search and rescue

Plan to spend most of the day at this training. Bring lunch and snacks.

This will be your first-hand interface with the Forest Service. As a Volunteer Wilderness Ranger, you are required to follow certain agency procedures in the performance of your ranger duties. Again, attendance is mandatory to complete overall ranger training.
